Conference Review
The
conference was opened by the Minister Assisting the Victorian Premier on
Multicultural Affairs Mr John Pandazopoulos.
Translation and Interpreting: Risks and Rewards was cohosted by Monash’s School of Languages, Cultures and Linguistics
and the Australian Institute of Interpreters and Translators at Monash’s
Caulfield campus. It featured keynote addresses by translation theorist
Professor Anthony
Pym from the Universitat Rovira i Virgili
in Spain; and translator, lexicographer and theorist Dr Kevin Windle from the Australian National University.
At
the conference dinner, award-winning Melbourne-based writer Mr Arnold Zable presented the Jill Blewett Memorial Lecture.
In
closing the conference, Dr Rita Wilson remarked
on the conference’s success in generating new ideas by crossing disciplinary
boundaries: “An especially positive feature of the conference was that it
provided an ideal forum for the sharing of knowledge about research and
practice in translation and interpreting."
